one day left to live series - 1 year and 7 days

Happy Diwali to your family from ours
Sripathi is a year old now. He started taking whole milk and has almost stopped taking Formula. In the past 10 days he met his hematologist who tested his blood and mentioned that Sripathi's hemo levels are at 13 which is great. He also visited his pediatrician and had his prevnar shot finally. And yes he has been doing fine after the shot. We have postponed his gastroenterologist appointment. And also we are weaning him off the Lactulose. I found that Avocados help with his constipation. So he gets a quarter of the pulp every day. Also the stage three Gerber foods - pears and blueberries also help.

Sripathi had a wonderful birthday celebration with satsang. He wore kurtha and dhoti sent by his paternal grandparents. Of course he received a lot of toys and books from his satsang family. Thanks to Lekshmi ji and Jeevan ji family for send me this wonderful book. This should really help me help Sripathi with the ABM. - Move into life by Anat Baniel.


Sripathi's water therapy is going great. So is his physical and vision. His occupational therapy is on hold for now.

BTW October 31'st is Halloween here in the USA. Aparna had given me her elder daughter Sadhana's Halloween costume for Sripathi. So here he is dressed up as Tigger from Winne the pooh.


We are now trying to get Sripathi to use a sippy cup. I found this product - think baby which I think should work for Sripathi. Let's see.
